Home Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Other choices

" My current audio chain is now like this: Eversolo A8 streamer > Gustard X26-lll > Lyngdorf TDAI 2200 digital amplifier with room correction > ATC SCM19 V2 speakers."

3 boxes of electronics, with their own cases, power supplies, cables, etc. Personally, if starting from scratch, I'd have gone for a good all-in-one and spent the saving (compared with 3 boxes) on bigger / better speakers.

The ATC 19s are from their Hi-Fi rage and these are far more suitable in the home than their Professional range. I understand their model 40 is a very capable speaker.

My strategy with hi-fi is to spend as much as possible on what makes the sound we hear (the speakers) and choose carefully to ensure the electronics don't let the speakers down. My own speaker to electronics list price ratio is 7:1 and I believe this offers best value and great sound, though I accept that my next upgrade should be in electronics.
